The AEW World champion did the top heelish thing at the AEW Revolution. While he was in the crowd, MJF took a bottle of water from a woman and threw the water at her kid.

It seems the kid was MJF fan, as he was sitting wearing his version of AEW World championship. As per Sean Ross Sapp’s tweet, the kid started crying after this act and he had to be taken backstage to smoothen things.

Sapp wrote, “It seems like the kid MJF threw the drink on wasn’t a plant. He was very upset.
@WilliamRBR went and got him an Acclaimed foam finger. Some others from AEW talked to the child to help smooth things over. Amanda Huber is sitting with him now”

The mother of the child was also furious at MJF’s act during the match. Moreover, the fans have also shared their support of the mother.
